Hi,
Most K series enginesare battery magneto ignition systems. Most common failures are the condenser and coil.
Best thing I can do for you that I think is probably better than me going through a long troubleshooting diatribe is to give you the link to download a service manual; just scroll down to yours.Kohler Manuals
